Is this intended to be a stable interface?  Interfaces intended just for
debugging usually aren't.
I don't think we need to make it a stable interface, but I won't
mind if we declare it stable.
If we don't feel 100% certain yet, it's maybe better to introduce this with
a "x-" prefix first, isn't it? I.e. "x-query-x86-cpuid" ... then it's clear
that this is only experimental/debugging/not-stable yet. Just my 0.02 €.
That would be my expectation. Is this a documented policy?
According to docs/interop/qmp-spec.txt :

  Any command or member name beginning with "x-" is deemed
  experimental, and may be withdrawn or changed in an incompatible
  manner in a future release.
